Front Sight Options For CW9?

[Gebe]

As some of you may know from my other thread, my front sight disappeared on my first range visit with my brand new CW9. Kahr is sending me a new replacement but I'm thinking of replacing it with a metal sight that won't fly off!

I've researched front sights for the CW9 and it looks like there are only two choices, The Dawson Precision fiber optic sight for $39.00 or the Trijicon Bright & Tough for $50.00.

Our wonderful moderator here Greg explained the difference between the two in my other thread but I like the screw attachment of the Trijicon and it looks more compact and more like the stock sight that I shot pretty well with at the range even though I only got to shoot two magazines.

What are you CW9 owner's preferences and why?

I have a complete set of Trijicons on my CW9 (also the CW45) and I've been pleased with them. Both guns shoot to point of aim (just over the front sight ) at ten yards. They are pretty durable as well...no problems after 6 years with them on the CW9 and 7 years on the CW45.

CW45 (right after installation):

When I had a CM9, I went with just a Trijicon front sight. It also shot to point of aim at 10 yds.



If you do the install yourself, please take a look at the following:
